I honestly don't know where Germany begins and corporate/banking interests end so yeah, you're right too. Merkel is such a ridiculous corporate puppet that whether you say Germany or corporate interests it's pretty much the same.

I completely disagree with the social liberal part though. That's what they sold to their people, a supposedly peaceful union of nations; in reality it's a union of banking and corporate interests waging war on the European middle and lower classes, USA style. It's a undemocratic union of ruling classes conspiring to screw us over and it's exactly how it was designed. Brussels nowadays is a city plagued with lobbyists constantly influencing politicians and EU decisions.

Your last sentence is the scary one. There are other countries and corporate oligarchies out there who might bring worse to the table. If Greece chooses to exit, it will be good for them to stay strong and fight for their independent economic survival.
